Majestic timpani embody the successful fusion of traditional craft and modern technology.

The Majestic Harmonic Series Timpani is for the band or professional on the move. No other portable timpani offer the performance, precision, and stability found in the Harmonic series. Our exclusive folding leg and pedal arm system combined with durable lightweight FRP kettles and precise tuning mechanism allow these models to easily move from rehearsal studio to stage without sacrificing performance.

Features and performance needed at all levelsFrom the professional Grand Classic series to the easily transportable Harmonic series, Majestic timpani offer the features and performance needed at all levels.

A standard of excellenceFounder Willem Klazes van der Glas set a standard of excellence in 1921 that remains as the governing philosophy for Majestic. Product development, engineering and production are overseen by family members and every model must adhere to stringent standards of craftsmanship and performance.

Now available in the United StatesThe level of quality that has won the loyalty of percussionists throughout Europe is now available in the United States. Majestic invites you to explore the entire line of timpani and discover the features and superior quality each model has to offer.

It is difficult to imagine getting a decent pair of timpany for so little money. More importantly, the instruments are actually well equipped: in addition to the full balanced pedal action, they both come with individual tuning gauges.

Also, what isn't mentioned in the description, Majestic included strong zippered canvas full-length covers for both drums, as well as two pairs of mallets (hard and soft).

Considering the amount of money paid, the sound is surprisingly full and solid. The drums are still a bit heavy, although nowhere near as much as copper. Folding mechanism allows for easier storage (lowers the clearance and makes for a bit flatter, sturdier bottom surface).

Our community orchestra rehearses in varous spaces on our complex, so these get moved around almost every week. They are rugged enough to handle movement without any issues on the pedal action, tuning, etc.

Just used my Majestic Harmonic 26" and 29" set with a regional opera company. The tone if the drums is quite nice. The tuning gauges are very reliable. The folding legs are well-designed and super easy to use. The hardware is very strong and sturdy. The pedal action is ok once the heads are set to the propper range, although the leverage still seems a little off for the 29" drum. Also, the drums are much heavier than I anticipated, so even though they fit easily into my car, they're not all that easy to move. Even so, I would recommend these drums to anyone who does timpani giggingJust used my Majestic Harmonic 26" and 29" set with a regional opera company. The tone if the drums is quite nice.
